When the game changes, you can learn to keep up and level up or get left out. Whether you’re operating from C-suite, an aspiring entrepreneur or managing a team, you are already the CEO of your own career. Remote Leadership - the story of a CEO’s journey and a pivotal transformation in leadership - will provide the tools you need to build and lead any size team. 

Successful leaders are embracing mindful leadership that invests in communities and leans into creating sustainable workspaces that encourage sharing, collaboration, psychological safety, and mental health. This evolution of leadership requires new skills to achieve peak performance and build winning teams.

Remote Leadership is the story of how JumpCrew, a three-year-old company whose rapid growth and success was so closely tied to face-to-face interaction, not only survived, but thrived in spite of the crisis erupting. While offices across the world experienced a chaotic new world of online meetings, JumpCrew successfully leveraged its commitment to three pillars for growth and success:

• Reflective Leadership
• Coaching Culture
• Peer Learning

The pillars of Remote Leadership are powerful reminders that learning and growth only come when you step out of your comfort zone, and that to lead, you must be willing to look within.

David Pachter is the executive chairman and cofounder of JumpCrew. He founded his first company at twenty-three years old, and it failed in its first week of operation. David’s journey from “slacker to CEO” started five years later, when he began to set professional goals based on what he could control: his own effort and execution. His subsequent entrepreneurial ventures have resulted in a portfolio of profitable companies and/or successful exits.

Growing up in New York, his first passion was playing basketball. An average athlete at best, it was there he learned the importance of supporting the talents of others―that the chemistry of how players collaborate, compete, communicate, and learn together all contribute to great teams. These experiences would become key elements of David’s philosophies on teamwork and remote leadership.

In addition to his work with JumpCrew, David regularly speaks with leaders and entrepreneurs about overcoming the challenges of building teams and managing a remote and hybrid remote workforce. His coaching has helped countless executives develop communities of people that work together and accelerate individual and team achievement.
